(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } OhO's TR90 are wearable 4K resolution glasses in a camouflage pattern.It has several removable lenses which include a 100% UV400 protection black sun glasses, a polarized yellow lens and a US safety lens, which is apparently made to the standard ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2015 impact resistance for eye and face protection. The glasses come with the yellow glasses though I would opt for the black sunglasses lens or none at all.The glasses offers a unique proposition of recording in first person point of view, which can be great for reporting sports such as cycling, driving or any outdoor activities, which is good to fast action shots.The glasses have a built in memory which can store video footage in H.265 codec, and can apparently store about 3.5 hours worth of footage, however the battery can only last about 30 minutes but can be charged and used at the same time. Functionality it is very easy to use as there's a single button to press to turn on, to take photos and to turn off, it has a vibration alert and a discreet red LED light which is only shown towards your left eye.Now on paper these are all very good abilities and functions, however the most important aspect, comfort, has been ignored and where the glasses fit too tightly other your head. Due to this I am really hard pressed to recommend these glasses, unless you have a small hard and money to spare, usually getting a dedicated action camera would offer image quality, functionality, practicality and comfort.The price appears very dear for these glasses unfortunately.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad as a fun item, not a practical long term recording option though

On one hand, looking at it from an aesthetic standpoint I think it's quite interesting how close they are to regular sunglasses but there's no denying that they don't look quite the same as a standard pair of sunglasses - there's a thickness that I think you can't get away from given the technology that's buried inside. The camera in the centre is very visible - which I think is a very good thing - and the lenses themselves are clear and wide enough to give a decent field of view (as sunglasses).However, they're not comfortable. They feel tight, they pinch, and they don't sit in the same way that a normal pair of sunglasses would. The arms don't bend outwards, meaning if you have a larger head (or even just a standard-sized head), they will constantly be pressing into the sides of your head.I thought the quality of the video was acceptable, given the form factor. There's no way video from something like this is going to be comparable with a larger device like a smartphone, but it's perfectly usable to capture everyday footage. Don't expect it to be of broadcast or even smartphone quality though. The battery really doesn't last very long, which again is to be expected given the small size of the battery that must be contained within. However, they're really easy to use and do something that is otherwise pretty much impossible - capture footage from pretty much exactly your viewpoint.The price when I ordered these was £49.99 which I think is perfectly reasonable for these as a niche/novelty item. The current price of around £180 is excessive though. Fun as a one-off, but not a really practical long-term recording solution.

2.0 out of 5 stars Novelty item

M.D. · 1 January 2025

An unusual item. As someone has said - don't lose the included cable.Image and video quality is..quite frankly poor if you compare it to any mobile phone made within the last 10. It's almost like it's been upscaled from much lower resolution - very disappointing! I mean. - apart from that key feature, they're OK for a quick walk down the street or beach and they do at least come with different lenses. They're obviously a little heavier due to the included electronics and battery - which lasts about 25 minutes before giving up the ghost.If the video quality was better and with less noise, then I'd give it a higher score. But with my review unit, it's very poor.

3.0 out of 5 stars Painfully uncomfortable but they work ok

C.G. · 5 December 2024

These are a fairly unusual item, and I struggle to see how useful they are. Unless plugged in to a power source they have at best half an hour of recording time. Probably enough for a few FPV action shots but certainly not useful on a day out.Don't lose the USB C cable it is about 1mm longer than a standard one and this is necessary for the glasses to connect to recharge or download the images.The picture shown is one I took with the camera function. Both video and photographs are impressively clear, and I can almost believe that the video is indeed 4k.My real problem with the glasses is how uncomfortable they are. The ends of the arms dug painfully into the sides of my head and I wasn't able to keep the glasses on for more than a few minutes. It is as if they were designed for people with smaller heads. Overall I think you would be better off with a dedicated camera system for recording action shots, these are too limited and as far as I'm concerned far too uncomfortable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lightweight and comfy but short battery life

These 4k POV sunglasses are very comfy and it is very nice to see that you get an array of lenses allowing you to personalise them to the colour/gradient you want or need. They are lightweight and do not feel distinctly different from regular shades. These glasses would be great for outdoor extreme sports and offer a 4k resolution recording however the battery life only permits you around 30mins video time so you have to really consider when you want to use this function. Overall a decent product that may suit anyone looking for a POV recording function for outdoor activities.
